thank you for the tag @sistersblack! i will also be including some wips bc i start more than i finish sooo yeah.

love and other burnings · wip · liz/samar, liz/reddington | the blacklist · She knows, later, when the tears have stopped and she can think with a semblance of clarity, that Liz was dead before she got there.

march into the sun (ch8) · wip · root/shaw | poi · Though there is nothing about their lives that could be considered normal, the Machine and Shaw have settled, after quite some time, into somewhat of a routine.

there is a light that never goes out · severus/remus, severus/evan | hp · The crowd gathered tonight is subdued, waiting, fear etched into many of their faces.

where the armor ends · wip · tammy/hannah | ncis nola · Getting drunk feels like the first good decision Tammy has made all day.

ain't gotta hide this heart of mine · harry/cedric | hp · Of all the things Harry could possibly be focusing on, this Potions essay, sitting half-written under his quill that has been hovering mid-thought for the past several minutes, is certainly not one of them.

a perfect and necessary darkness · kim & trudy | chicago pd · She isn't sure what made her go to the district, except maybe that the walls of her apartment felt like they were closing in on her.

in the middle of a heartbreak song · olivia/alex & noah | svu · It's nearly bedtime when Noah's little voice startles Olivia from a stupor.

the sound of silence · kat/adena | the bold type · When she asks herself, weeks later, why she packed up and left New York, Adena tells herself that she was always better at running away.

and i don't know if i'm ever coming home · olivia/alex | svu · We find the defendant guilty.

if our grave was watered by the rain · olivia/alex | svu · "Let's get out of here," Alex says, and the night's tension seems to dissipate.

earth angel · wip · root/shaw, alex/lucy | poi & supergirl · "Alex! Alex, wait up!"

the space between · jj/emily | criminal minds · Emily hates Paris.

and a place in my heart will always be hers · jj/emily | criminal minds · Garcia had once asked Emily how much she loved JJ.

baby, let's go home · jj/emily | criminal minds · She's watching them from her office, through the cracks in the blinds.

let the brokenness be felt until you reach the other side · root/shaw & the machine | poi · At six years old, you told your father you didn't care for the dark.

long live the reckless and the brave · root/shaw | poi · In the end, Root calls Shaw.

i'll bury you by the river, carve your name into the sand · root/shaw, shaw & fusco | poi · Shaw returns to them the same way she left, in a hail of bullets and blood.

march into the sun (ch1) · wip · root/shaw | poi · The armed men had left their vehicles exactly four minutes and twenty-eight seconds ago, leaving the street quiet.

the chaos of stars · unpublished · root/shaw | poi · They ask her what she remembers and she says nothing.

quiet nights poured over ice and tanqueray · kara/cat | supergirl · It takes a little too long for Alex and Maggie's giggles to fade after they leave the bar, and it leaves Kara biting at her lip, fiddling with her straw, tears pricking at her eyes.

okay so i def cheated a little and used mits twice, but hey just count it as a sneak peak. in terms of patterns, uh, a bitch loves commas?? for a lot of my one-shots, i tend to just go for inserting right into the action or just general exposition. not too big on dialogue, but i've done it in some of my older fics. for my favorite, i think it's the first one, because it's an emotional smack in the face which really encapsulates the whole fic lol.

idk who hasn't done this but tagging @maria-de-salinas, @isntthisjustwonderful, @maggiesbell, @wenjoyspark and anyone who wants to!

[bishopsbelova]

lmfao, i'm dead

[bishopsbelova]

I know I am late to the game; but I am obsessed with them

[bishopsbelova]

Watching New Orleans has allowed me more time with one of my favorite guest stars and I'm okay with that

Special Agent Abigail Borin how I miss you

[bishopsbelova]

Stop sending Tammy into the creepy and haunted places challenege

[bishopsbelova]

You cannot make Tammy a (rightfully) cocky person who doesn't take any shit and a fucking sharpshooter and expect me not to be obsessed with her

[bishopsbelova]

Pride being such a girl!dad and even still doing pinky promises with Laurel (in college) is something so personal to me

[bishopsbelova]

Oh I kind of hate that Nola's last season is covid

[bishopsbelova]

As if I wasn't already in love with his man, he goes and drops this truth

Maybe all boomers ain't bad

[bishopsbelova]

Aside from the fact that I was not expecting NOLA to do actually do covid; because I think LA just brushed over it if they even did at all? But just the ideal of Tammy and Sebastian being quarantined together is killing me

You mean Sebastian survived that???

[bishopsbelova]

Where was Sonja? 😭😭

You can’t just bury country mouse without city mouse 😭

[bishopsbelova]

The writer's are getting my therapy bills for this.... because what the fuck

[bishopsbelova]

It has taken me over an hour to watch this one episode; because of how much I've been crying

[bishopsbelova]

Oh.... I've gotten to that episode of NOLA and I'm gonna go take a long walk off a short bridge now.

Watch an NCIS show they said, it'll be fun they said

[bishopsbelova]

I've just met Hannah Khoury and I'm obsessed with her.

That is all
